Many of these Leave politicians use neoliberal ideology as a cover story, to help them justify inequality.

They do not want the least educated to have more control over their lives.

They want the least educated to know their place and to make low-paid work even more precarious.

They see leaving EU as a way to gain more control over the weakest British people.

In other words: Lying Leave neoliberals are manipulating the voters with the least amount of control over their lives, into losing more control, by promising more control.

But because the least educated don’t know what neoliberalism is used for, they’re unaware of how they are being conned.

Misiniformed voters are relying on emotion. Emotion is easily manipulated.

The con: Leave campaign politicians are pretending that EU is the problem, not their neoliberal story & rich patrons.

So:

If you’re voting Leave and want your vote to be based on facts, then you really need to find out more about neoliberalism.
